Oh Hell No!
Fricking idiots using the 20 year rule to bring more of these death traps in to the country. FFS.
This is why we specifically need to ban forward control Vans. NOW!

I thought "concertina" was what the "safety" system was called on those?

Anyhow, the recent import was also my answer to the OP's question.

it will rust out faster than wear out, especially on northland roads.

brakes, rear brake adjustment. typical toyota auto adjusters that wear.

Agreed.

cleaned it today adjust tomorrow . he is turning it in to campervan i am going to refurbish his muffler heat shields and a bit of surface rust. it looks like as if it was about 6 years old not 22.
